Magistrate Court considers whistle stop law flaw
A case in Magistrate's Court discusses whether a policeman must raise a hand when halting a fleeing car, as a whistle alone may be insufficient under the state law. The incident occurred on North Broad Street at 10:30 p.m. with two speeding cars who did not stop despite the whistle. The report notes calls to rewrite the law to avoid this technicality.
